And considering awareness of the term doubled in four years, according to the poll you cite, do you think that's because it was used so very seldomly?

It's odd to see a doubling of awareness with something that was never used as you claim.

Also, didn't you say a few weeks back "As much as I loathe Trump's immigration "policy", I now find myself hoping more and more that Trump does go after ALL Latinos and starts putting them in camps."

Huh. You did say that. I am looking at it right now. Maybe speaking authoritatively about Latino issues isn't a wheelhouse item for you.
